The Ministry of Public Health reiterates the cannabis and hemp draft law to be safe and practical, prioritizing the needs of the people.

 

Dr. Praphon Tangsrikiatkul, Committee Chairman of Marijuana for Medical Use under the Ministry of Public Health, revealed on Monday, September 26th, that the committee held a meeting with the Public Health Ministry to review and seek conclusions for the guidelines of planting, producing, using and distributing cannabis and hemp for medical purposes after the draft bill was voted withdrawn earlier this month.

The Chairman stated that the committee acknowledged the needs of the people in Thailand and around the world to decriminalize marijuana for medical purposes and attempted to draft the law and regulations for the sake of the people and hopefully for the reformation of the Thai health system.

Rolling back the decriminalization of Cannabis will create much more problems than the legalization did .

People are mostly happy with the regulations now ( except some doctors who do not profit enough from it ) .

Just leave it like that , time will show that it was right to decriminalize it .

"People are mostly happy with the regulations now ( except some doctors who do not profit enough from it ) ".  and the usual proponents of the "reefer madness" fallacy

Current regulations are sensible. Leave them be in  my opinion. Those trying to undermine them are either the usual busy-bodies, or are those who have missed out on a business involvement.

If you’ve got an addictive personality leave it alone

Article in the uk daily mail today said that woman with metastacized stage 4 breast cancer was declared cancer free after taking cannabis containing THC. Her doctors tried it after chemo failed. It came back after she stopped taking it but went into remission again once she started taking it again. 

 

Weed even with high thc is not all about getting wasted.

The profit Dr's make from drug sales is minuscule compared to the profits earned by the drug companies.

I think you are correct, Its been nearly 4 months since they liberalised it , And despite all the horror predictions from the "concerned" and the best efforts of the gutter press its really been spectacularly unspectacular! and to be honest no other substance or situation has ever been under such critical scrutiny by the media, yet they have had nothing of any substance  to report whatsoever

There is an old saying in english " if it's not broke then don't try to fix it"  the authorities would do well to apply that logic.
